    The Invisible Start Button

    Is it just me? From the steering wheel's and my driving position I cannot see the Start Button and its dim green light. As a result, having once parked, pressed 'P', knocked off the music and picked up all the bits and pieces, shut the driver's door, emptied the boot, you then press the fob's...

    Replacement Windscreen Wipers

    I just put in 'Ali Express MG3 Hybrid+ wipers' to search engine and found this page: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008257623679.html Select RHD - £7.69 the lot! - even less than mine!

    Engine oil circulation

    When I first got mine I had to get onto our nearby motorway with its new cold engine so took it very easy up to just 60mph and the engine was going some.

    Eco mode

    Replacement Windscreen Wipers

    Ncap fail for mg3 hybrid

    A mandatory recall - I like the sound of that. Anybody clever enough to start up a petition for us '24 MG3s???

    What car did your MG3 replace ? ??

    As an MG nut when the original MG3s came out I got one, after five years I got another on. Yes they couldn't take the skin off a rice pudding but never had any trouble with them, except an air con gas pipe broke on one - replaced under warranty and the second one with Stop/Start seemed to like...
